rt ation, (luting the wonderful year that the Noble Lord held a conspicuoui place in his counsels.— wheil Buenos Ayres wag 'iost, - Egypt invaded, qua II y great achievements. were performed: But they would have tte ..consolatiw ,of :knowing Mat Jhey „bad left nothing undone that could be,perform ed irl the cause of, Spain. They would., know that the heart of every,true Spaniard was taught to beat with Warmth and gratitude towards Biitain. Spain . would :feel, that whatever efforts she tuade for de, liverance, Britain would assist her, and, that the Government of that country at any rate cnuid not be accused of ap athy. With this mutual feeling and cutifidetwe be, hoped .and trusted that one of the best and. most just Causes on earth would .hually triumph. We are under the necessity from the length and impor tance of the Gazette Extraqrtlinary, and of the Foreign Jo. telligeocc, to confine oursetves to a mere descriOttun of tlw remainder of tin., huerestiog debate.] Lord MOIR A was of opinion,' that the plan of the campaign in Spam was injudiciously .tormed , ',by Ministers, and therefore, he should vote fore the I 100011. LGfd SIDMOUTH spoke on the sum side. '• Lord MULGRAVH' defended the cenduft of Mi nisters, who, he said, had, in the mode in which the gave aisistance to Spain, followed the wi , ,hes of the Spanish Governmetit. -His Lordship replied with very great ability to 'Lord Sidmouth and Lord Moira. Lord EREKINB disapproved of the condu& of !' ; 11linister4, and said be Should vote for the M o ti on . • Lord WEsi.stettLAND thought the Noble Lord who brotight forward the motion, and those who had followed .him, had been pretty liberal in their censures on Government. According to them, Mi. nisters were wholly unfit to, hold their places; be did not doubt but they knew of persons who, in their opinion, might be substituted with great ad vantage, • fie thought at that late hour it was unne . eeisary for him to consider what precise line of con dua Region(' oui ht. to have putteued3 but this he would say, that honour, justice, and'above all, po ky, caled upon her to support the Spanish cause by every means in her petv'er. The • Noble Lord opposite, he said, shaped his conduct like most pro phets, in order to fulfil his ends. Was it, lie would ask of the Noble Lord, a' measure of disgrace to free ourselves from a , troublesome' and dangerous block, ade, and to restore to thepeople of Portugal the pos session of their native land ? Upon the whole, he received Abe Noble Lord's animadversions on - this bead as u compliment which_ merited his thanks,- 1-4owould beg leave, however, : to say, that the brit , ham expedition to Alexandria or Constantinople, was never considered by the Noble Lord opposite bs matter of disgrace. In filet, they gave themselves always. that liberal latitude 'which they - withheld. from others. The. Noble Lord concluded by giving his negative to the motion. Lord Guktsvii.Lit, in a speech of considerable length, reprobated the condua of Ministers. We had not, , 'he said, gone rightly to work in our en dtavotirs for the Spanish cause. A Naval Country, - such as ours, should have followed the plan of de barking troops where they were alone absOlUtely necessary for immediate nation, and our country afforded better opportunities for this purpose titan the Peninsula of Spain. • The. question being called for, the pola , Oivided :" , upon the motion, Contents so i Non.

'We yesterday' had the satisfaclion of -communi, cat ing to our Readers, in a great 'part of our i u tile gratifying inteliisence of the reault of 1110 attack madeupon the Brest Heet in Basque Roads„ 'Ube details of that, gallant achievement we=re last night published by Oceintnent in a 00;,etie ',grafreO nary, which will be found. in another part of our I ) .iper: A large portion of the Brest Fleet has'been destroyed, and the retuaining ships, if not actually dc:sti:o)ed, are in such a condition, that a long period Dluit elapse before they can be rendered fit for ser-;.

Aerate language ; it appeals to the good sense, pa, triotisin, and loyalty of the: People, in the moat noble, dignified, • and inipraisive terms. l'he re ference to : .the nurnliers of Germans who I;ave been compelled to fight' in the Armies of the French Usurper; is very 'affe4ing.,, The allusion to the triumphs ofFrance over the Austrian 'Troops cannot but rouse their national pride; and the reeanimenda lion of humanity towards the conquered foe, is an example of magnanimity which that foe will pro bably nem imitate:. But the most important passage in this noble Proclamation is that which announces the.co-operation of Foreign Troops with- Austria. That the result of the ensuing contest May beard- verse to Francemust be the.ardent wish of all who wish well to national independence, and . the happi. Ilea of the civilized world. ; : r We thii Morning received illoniteurs to the t ltit inst. from which wu have made the tollowig4 extraCis "MUNICH ) APRIL 3 . ‘-.tlf' there could yet exist any doubts reape6ting a subsidiary Treaty being con cluded between .

It has resulted from this, that BJls on Lon don have fallen 15 per cent. We also have to .
